Home » CMA Glossary Term » Financial Statements and Reporting » Incremental Borrowing Rate

The incremental borrowing rate is defined as the interest rate a lessee would have to pay to borrow funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a lease transaction. This rate reflects the lessee’s credit risk and the lease term. It is crucial for calculating the present value of lease liabilities under IFRS 16 and ASC 842.
